Rallytime1975 Posted January 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have heard others go and talk with the MatreeD in the Main Dinning room to request seats/table by the window. We have a group of 8 people, and the last cruise I was on, I was by the window and I LOVED it!!!! Is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lsimon Posted January 23, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Yes it is possible, but it will depend on availability. If the tables are already assigned then there will be little the maître d' can do. But it never hurts to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rallytime1975 Posted February 1, 2014 Author #11 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Actually, I was on COPY of the email to the coordinator for the ship. This is how I got the confirmation: Emailed the customer service at Celebrity, they responded back with a special email to email. I emailed them, and within an hour I was on COPY and Based on experience there is a 50:50 chance that information will actually reach the ship.....

JanineM Posted February 1, 2014 #12 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Of course pretty much everyone who dines in the main dining room would prefer to have a prime location - like by the window. Not even a quarter of the tables are by the window, so someone is going to be disappointed. As Simon said, you'll never know until you ask ...

scubamommy! Posted February 1, 2014 #13 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Thanks for the Update! I am going to give it a try. Won't be disappointed if we do not receive one, just pleasantly surprised if we DO get one. Can't hurt to try! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimlovesfl Posted February 1, 2014 #14 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Keep in mind that most tables are within view of the windows, and if you are dining after it gets dark, you can't see anything anyway. We just got off the Constellation, and had select dining. I think we only had a table one night that wasn't real close or within decent view of a window, but since we were in the "Twilight Zone", as I called it, it didn't matter anyway. Now, during the day, for breakfast or lunch, I wanted a window seat, and it was easy, and having lunch on the outside patio of the Oceanview Cafe was wonderful.

Rare ghstudio Posted February 1, 2014 #15 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Of course, you may not really want to be by the window if the window spontaneously shatters as it did on the infinity TA this past fall. Imagine eating and suddenly hearing a very loud shattering noise directly behind you. We were in pretty high seas so the ship was under some stress....the window just shattered like a windshield...it's safety glass, so it just shattered with cracks everywhere. We were one table away when it happened. Be careful what you ask for :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted February 1, 2014 #16 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Can you share the email address you were given to request a specific table location? We have had no luck doing this in the past, and limited luck in changing tables while onboard as most cruises are pretty full these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss SeaBee Posted February 2, 2014 #23 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I requested a window table once, a year in advance, and did not get it. Maybe you have to have more clout? Or it may be a matter of luck. Send from device_name using Cruise Critic your_app_name App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
